Ground-Up Builds Engineered for West Texas Conditions
Residential and Light Commercial New Construction From Site Prep to Final Inspection
Shallowater residents choose new construction when they want a structure built right from the start—no surprises, no compromises, and no outdated systems to work around. Shepherd Contracting Services manages ground-up residential and light commercial builds with close coordination from planning through final inspection. Every phase is handled with materials and methods suited for high wind, intense sun exposure, and the climate realities of West Texas.
Site preparation includes grading, foundation layout, and utility coordination. Framing follows with attention to load paths and wind bracing. Exterior systems—roofing, siding, windows—are installed to withstand seasonal extremes. Interior build completion covers electrical, plumbing, insulation, drywall, and finishes. The focus is on structural integrity, energy efficiency, and long-term performance, not shortcuts or trend-driven details that fail under stress.
Built to Last in High Wind and Sun Exposure
West Texas conditions demand more than standard construction practices. Foundations are engineered for soil movement. Roofing materials are selected for wind resistance and heat reflection. Exterior finishes resist UV degradation and dust infiltration. Insulation and air sealing reduce cooling loads during long summers. Every system is chosen and installed with the understanding that this structure will face decades of temperature swings, wind events, and sun exposure.
Close coordination with clients ensures that design decisions reflect both function and budget. Changes are documented, timelines are updated, and inspections are scheduled to keep the project moving without rework. From framing to final walkthrough, you'll know what's happening and why.

Why New Construction Outperforms Renovation in Some Scenarios
When a property lacks the infrastructure, layout, or structural capacity you need, building new eliminates the compromises inherent in renovation. You start with a clean foundation, modern systems, and a design tailored to your exact requirements. The process is more predictable, and the result is a structure engineered for current codes and future performance.
